18 kmph

3 kmph

12 kmph

10 kmph

Solution:

Q6. A man can row a boat 6 kmph in still water. If the speed of the current is 2 kmph, it takes 3 hours more in upstream than in the downstream for the same distance. The distance is:

4 kmph

3 kmph

6 kmph

2 kmph

8 kmph

Solution:

Q8. A boat has to travel upstream 20 km distance from point X of a river to point Y. The total time taken by boat in travelling from point X to Y and Y to X is 41 min 40 s. What is the speed of the boat?

66 kmph

72 kmph

48 kmph

Cannot be determined

None of these

Solution:

Here, we cannot find the required answer as there are two variables in one equation.

Q9. A swimmer goes downstream from one port to another in 4 hr. It covers the same distance upstream in 5 hr. If the speed of the stream is 2 kmph, then find the distance between the two ports.

80 km

60 km

70 km

50 km

75 km

Solution:

Q10. A boat running upstream takes 528 min to cover a certain distance, while it takes 240 min to cover the same distance running downstream. What is the ratio between the speed of the boat in still water and speed of the current respectively?

2 : 1

3 : 2

8 : 3

3 : 8

5 : 9

Solution:

Q11. The ratio of speeds of a motorboat in still water to that of the speed of current is 36 : 5. The motorboat goes along with the current in 5 hours 10 min. Find the time taken by motorboat to come back.

5 hours 50 min

6 hours

6 hours 50 min

12 hours 10 min

None of these

Solution:

Q12. Akhlakh is rowing a boat. He takes half time in moving a certain distance downstream than upstream. What is the ratio of the rate of boat in still water to the rate of current?

2 : 1

5 : 1

7 : 1

3 : 1

1 : 3

Solution:
